After the natural disaster of Hurricane Katrina and the manmade explosion at the vampire summit, everyone human and otherwise is stressed, including Louisiana cocktail waitress Sookie Stackhouse, who is trying to cope with the fact that her boyfriend Quinn has gone missing. It’s clear that things are changing whether the weres and vamps of her corner of Louisiana like it or not. And Sookie, Friend to the Pack and blood-bonded to Eric Northman, leader of the local vampire community is caught up in the changes.

This book is very engaging to be fully honest here I didn’t expect that because of the 2 previous books in this series which were meh.

The plot here was slow at the beginning but it picked up a little bit at the end which really wasn’t enough for me because I wanted more action.

Even thou we get a little bit of the action we still get engaged in this book because there is a vampire war and a were war going on. Which I personally found very enjoyable and interesting. Because of the 2 wars going on in this book we get more information and details on both the vampires and the shapeshifters. And we get more info on the hierarchy on these both groups.

In a way we get 4 different storylines in this book because there is the vampire war going on, were war, sookie’s boyfriend going missing and sookie trying to survive everything. To be honest it was confusing to keep track of everything and what problem we are going through at each page.

The characters here are very likeable and the character development is amazing in this series. The characters are still are on the annoying side in this book but it doesn’t bother me anymore because over the 8 books I grown to like them. 

Even thou all these 8 books in this series so far take place in less than 1 year really don’t feel like it. It feels more like years went by because of the character development. Which really made me give this series a little bit of extra points.

I Give This Book 2 / 5
